In the early 1990s, former professional wrestler and police officer Michael Stivers launched a career as a hypnotist, but with the unusual specialty of “breast enlargement hypnotism.”
According to his pitch, “The larger-breast style of self-hypnosis relaxes the subject, then allows her to will an increased blood flow into the fatty tissues of the breast, much like that during menstruation or pregnancy. Daily conditioning through self-hypnosis allows what amounts to a permanent enhancement.”
As George Constanza once said, “It’s not a lie if you believe it.”
It may comes as a surprise then that according to an article from the Des Moines Register posted by Weird Universe, not all of Stivers’ customers were satisfied.
“A 58-year-old Tampa woman who wouldn’t give her name said her bust measurement grew 3 inches through hypnosis in April, but then shrank 1 ½ inches,” reads the article.
